Im happy to announce, that we now have a new Crypto Market Scanner.
Lets disscuss whats happening on the Bitcoin chart this morning. Then lets talk about how we can use the new scanner that @dogphish has created for us.
Here is the new Crypto Market Scanner: http://www.cryptomarketscanner.com/
You can contact @dogphish on his blog: https://steemit.com/@dogphish or by email at [email protected]
I cannot thank our programmers enough for all there hard work.
We now have two great market scanners, and these scanners are only going to get better as they keep on adding great features.

Thanks @quickfingersluc , What do you think of the idea of starting a slack channel or discord (or other chat application) for your community so that we can discuss your tips and videos and help answer each others questions and faq's. This would help take some of the load of of you and all the questions you get.

Luc's info and strategy is the best I've found so far. He's strategy is gold if you're new to this world. I cannot stop watching the videos and reading the blog. The community is also a great help. The scanner is amazing and quick with the updates. I'm catching a lot of the notifications. The extra information provided in this scanner is very helpful.
Big thank you to Luc, the programmers and the community.

Is there a way to maybe highlight the spread between the "Change To" and "Current Bid"? Have another column showing a green arrow or symbol if it's within 3% and a red arrow if it's greater than 3% (we can change the percent range based on preference). This will help in reacting faster to the drop knowing we haven't missed out and can put a bid in instead of having to check all the numbers to confirm. Thoughts?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

I like the way your thinking.. The real opportunities are often when the ask is still at the low..Sometimes a seller will overwhelm the bid and drop the price quite low, but then the ask will still remain at the low, because he has not sold his entire lot, and he used a limit order.. In that case, you can quickly grab what he has left, directly on the ask... Im not really sure how to get the scanner to spot these situations, and they dont happen that often, but you need to react very fast when you see them, because there will be a ton of buyers behind you typing buy orders as fast as they can.

There was a very nice opportunity a couple days ago with a huge limit offer in XEL that I was alerted to with the other scanner - illustrates your point. I lifted some as the buys accelerated. Then exited on a push to 70s. Did you catch this one?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
No I didn't catch it.. but there are so many that I miss. I try to just work a schedule, only watching the scanner for a 6 hour shift and then I try not to think about all the ones I missed.. My big money comes from the larger position type trades that I take, but it is certainly fun to catch those drops on quick day trades too ..

Something I'll have to get used to. I've seen you set alerts for trades below your bases.
Do you ever set low-ball bids overnight? Not the nibbles, to get a feel...but a modest position (nothing crazy) far off from market?
It's something I've been considering, although I imagine I'll only be comfortable after a few months learning the personality of certain coins.

Thank you. I'm trying to better understand this. Are you saying when the ask is still at or near the 'change to' low? Instead of just the bid being at the low? I know you're super busy and I appreciate you taking the time to answer a question but could you give an example of what you mean exactly because I'm trying to picture what this scenario would look like as you describe it. Wouldn't there be asks in front of his limit order if the price drops?

Think off it as a box of apples.. say Ryan has 20 apples in his box and wants to sell them, and jack wants 2 apples at $4 (so she puts out a bid at 4.00)an apple and jill wants 3 apples at 3.75 (so he bids ) and peter want 3 apples at 3.65 (so he bids) and tom want 2 apples at 3.50 (s0 he bids)... But Ryan decided to sell his apples no lower than $2.00.. So he puts a limit order to sell them at 2.00 .. Well than Jack Jill Peter and Tom all get bid orders filled, but Ryan still has 10 Apples in his box, for sale at 2.00.. Ryan now sitting on the ask, and he is the low of the day.. He is asking $2.00 still for his apples.. but at $2.00 people are going to come in quick and buy up his ask

Luc, what's the best criteria if I just want to position trade higher volume coins with large dollar amounts ($5000-20000)? I want to find those big beautiful dips like on ETH, everyday. 10% drop over the past 4 hours? 15% over 2 hours? Thank you again..

I think Luc said this few times "don't put all eggs in one basket". If it will not bounce-back you will lose a lot so you have to be really careful and be 99.99% sure that bounce back will happen. I think you should look at coins with higher volume and you should be fine.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

yes, ETH seems to be the perfect chart, except that it doesn't dive enough! I just want a scanner that can identify these types of trades on higher volume coins. I have had some luck with coindera, and just setting alerts on coinigy, but a scanner would make a world of difference. Personally, id rather make 1-3 trades a week, make 2-5k and be "bored" than sitting in front of my computer all day scraping together tiny $50 dollar trades. That's just me though :)

I'm in the same situation, but I don't think there are many that have the consistency of ETH. I think that is part of the reason why he says that you could make real money position trading but you'll get board as hell. The daily action is in day trading. Paraphrasing from memory... pretty sure that was his message.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

yes, but day trading honestly feels like small time gambling. You rush to click the coin, and out bid the other guy for some low volume coin that barely will net you $50-100 over a few hours because the book is too thin to use more than 1 BTC per trade. Im getting tired of it, but it fills in the time between the larger dips I guess

Would it make sense to build a position trading scanner?
One that tracks patterns, Identifies bases, how far the panic sell goes on average once the base is cracked, how far it typically bounces back after, and what the probability that the pattern will continue based on past results?
Is there a flaw with this sort of thinking?

This is what I am after also!

It would be crude, but effective, right? Thanks again man. If I had it my way I would just make 1-3 large trades per week and live the good life :)

I have a question about how orders are fulfilled. There was a dump on EOS/BTC at around 0.00056, but to be safe I put an order at 0.00059. At the time there was only 1 other order at 0.00063 But my order got fulfilled only after a while. So in this case, would the higher prices be fulfilled first? Or would matching the order at exactly the ask price (0.00056) get fulfilled first?

I am having the same trouble. Could you make a video explaining how you catch these trades? I'm new to coinigy and find this the most confusing aspect. Are you using limit or stop/limit to trade?
This might be so simple and obvious to you and others but I need help explaining how each one works and why you might use one over the other.

You must place buy orders when you suspect that a dip might occur. Set your alerts higher than you plan for your trades, then commit the the buy by layering in. If the dip doesn't occur then you cancel the buy order.

HitBTC is now allowing deposits, but its the only exchange I know of that you can try to move your BCC to..

Hi great Luc!! :-D
This is not related to this video and I still couldn't watch this also. Sorry if you have already addressed these in the video.
How you buy right away when market scanner alerts? I still didn't start trading but I mimicked of doing it. But those movements are so fast that no matter how fast I try the prices bounce back up and I don't get to buy low. How you manage these things? This is regarding day trading actually.
Do you trade forex much? I also like to get into that and I wonder if you have any books or guides that you can suggest for me to read and find a good strategy. I have the basics but haven't traded yet.

I miss 80% of the daytrades off these crypto scanners.. This market is so new that things spike down with all the thin bids and then rebound instantly.. it is frustrating.. but that what its like when you are day trading in a very safe way.. we are not robots, and we dont have all the info on one screen.. we have to press links and write orders and that takes 10-20seconds.. and thats a little slow for daytrading, so we will always miss a ton of opportunities..

I cannot advise you on what to do to turn around this trade.. I can only say, please watch my videos and you will recover your losses in no time..
Heres how my BCC trading went: I had some BTC at various exchanges, So Yesterday I sold some $275s and then some $350s and later some $450s.. and then I was out...while I watched it climb all the way to over $1,000... So I by no means can predict the future, and really sold early, but it was a great profit.. then I waited to see price action I can trade (panic selling) ... So off HitBTC I bought BCC/ETH at .64 and sold.95 .. thats a near 50% profit in 15 mins
Again my entries are not perfect, but they are the safest trades that were availible... And that's the secret to trading : never lose money, only take the safest trades, so that you don't allow your capital to go down... I am a reaction trader, I let the market tell me where I should enter, and never base my trades off a gut feeling, or something everyone is telling me is going to be the next big thing. I just read charts and let the chart tell me where to get in.. and I usually get a 2month picture of the chart for big trades, but in the chart above, there is only today to see, so its a smaller trade, and a day trade, and those are 5 minute bars...

Hi Luc,
I've been watching your videos for the last month and am starting to get the hang of day trading - thank you.
After reading cryptosuf's last message I think I may have made a really foolish and novice error. I'm super confused and I hope you can shed some light on the situation!
I was using the Bittrex exchange on Coinigy and after the fork I watched BCC start to rise. I used my BTC to buy BCC and now they money has evaporated and there's no trading history on the BCC/BTC page in Coinigy and in the orders section it shows I place four BCC orders and two failed and two were cancelled. Now I have no BTC and a random very low amount of BCC. What has happened to my BTC?
Did I stuff up majorly? I thought they were two separate currencies? Or is something fishy going on? I've emailed Bittrex and Coinigy for help but haven't had a response yet.
Thanks in advance

Thats very strange.. I really don't know what could have happened there.. I hope Bittrex gets back to you about that, because you should have a balance of BTC if your orders got cancelled. Or you should have BCC if your orders got filled, but it should not just disappear. very strange

Did you went into your bittrex wallet account to check? It should be there.
Sometimes Coinigy doesnt update promptly . You'll have to refresh account, the button is at the bidding column of Type - Limit, There's two mini icons just right beside it. It's the 2nd one.

Nice, I made 3 solid trades on BCC at Bittrex. Should have been on Hitbtc though I only averaged 25%. I also sold BCC immediately, expecting a massive selloff, oh well! I may buy more when wallets open up and it bottoms out

Good advice. Wild swings yesterday and today. Got a little last night and sold for a small profit today. Waiting for the next entry point tonight. Seems like it may jump when the other side of the planet wakes up and starts trading. :)

Luc, a position trading question here.
So I am going through BitTrex and setting up my alerts. Basically on any chart that I think looks good.
I remember a while back you mentioned to look for charts that have a high or 100% success rate.
On this chart here: https://www.coinigy.com/s/i/5982484d82122/
You can see I go back in time, pick out the largest/most significant bounces up, and chose the bases, then get the approximate panic lengths so that I can choose my entries there.
On that though, you can see that I've circled and put a question mark in. Would you consider that base broken, and no return yet? And therefore not consider it and set up an alert for it?
Or would you just look at this chart and still trade it?
As I think it looks like a good chart, it just has a potential base that hasn't been returned to... or at least not yet?
p.s., I could see how you could consider a MINOR violation of that based that was returned to(its really small).

This is a perfect chart and a trade on a break of the 17 and then a panic drop are very good, the only issue is that, that particular break was when ETH took a hard fall.. and everything was falling, so some things had a hard time bouncing properly, with the whole market going down... several trades had a hard time on July 7th... So GNT in particular fell to .000135 and bounced to .000158 .. not quite making all the way back to 17s.. the .000135 became a reliable base and when it dropped to .00009s later it bounced perfect.. I expect the chart will correct itself and get back to 17s soon.. but I wouldn't wait around for that.. I would be trading any future cracks, but with the knowledge that there was one time it didnt quite make the bounce.. (although that was partly due to the market activities at the time)

@quickfingersluc can you please explain how GNT/BTC is a perfect chart? Let me know if I'm completely off here but this is where I would draw my bases.
https://www.coinigy.com/s/i/5983c6b269444/
There is 1 break that would work really nice and the other potential breaks from the base are pretty small and not panicky so you would have to be extremely vigilant to catch the bottom on them. I'd love to hear your explanation because maybe I'm looking at this wrong and I wouldn't want to limit myself on other charts if I'm not seeing something. Thank you!
Edit: Re-looking at the chart again, I guess you would just need to exercise patience and be cognizant of the previous bases as they extended out weeks and were eventually cracked. The times it did crack with the exception of the 7th, this is still a relatively high probability chart. Sorry for questioning but just wanted to confirm.

It seems that most of the altcoins have had their initial rise after the fork. Was there any way to know this? Now, it's hard to tell what to expect next. Is it wiser to wait for a while to see which way the wind is blowing or to just take up looking for bases and cracks from this new level? Oh, by the way, Luc, love the scanners and what you provide for us all.

can ask a stupid question? ok here goes - when trading say on bittrex (example market that I see Luc alot ) using say EOS/BTC and lets say EOS goes way up against bitcoin, but overall bitcoin is way down compared to USD - what's the point? should one always trade against a more stable currency?

If you try to figure out how the value of one coin effects the pair, you will drive yourself mad.. What about the fluctuations in USD.. if BTC goes up, could it be being influenced because USD is going down? and now your thinking about forex calculations.. its never ending.. heres the thing, if you read the chart of the pair you are about to trade, and every trade you would have taken in the past would have worked out for you, then you will know your odds of success, and thats really as complicated as it needs to get..

Hi Luc, quick question about bases:
https://www.coinigy.com/s/i/5983974e63979/
Here's the 2 month chart to get a clear picture of the chart: https://www.coinigy.com/s/i/59839653253ce/
So what is considered the base in these situations? The first base that a drew is 23% and the second one 27%.
Or is is just one big 33% base?

I wonder that myself. I think that the place where the big drop was stopped might be more significant than the bounce level.

I would say that the general area would suffice. These are long trades so scale in. Even if you came in a little high, you would have caught a lot of the drop by scaling in and made money all the way up.

Hi @quickfingersluc ,
Loved the video as always. I know you recommend trading "naked" charts but I found using just an RSI on top of the strategy really helps me accurately call out bottoms and tops. It strongly improved my execution, since I used to step in too early on a drop, and to sell to early on the rise again.
Do you see potential pitfalls to using this indicator to confirm entry / exit points?
Keep up the good work, you're helping tremendously!

Very lucky to get that price, currently selling at 201 on Kraken. Jumped up to over $300 for a bit on Bittrex, so interesting to see how vastly different the two exchanges are. Also fascinating to see this new coin trade under different symbols BCC and BCH at the same time depending on the exchange.

all exchanges will be trading BCC at different prices right now, because you cant easily move your BCC around, so that limits the arbitrage and makes every exchange an island

Wow! I just woke up to look at the price and it's up to $532. This is pretty crazy and I'm really tempted to cash out but, maybe it it'll keep rising...(any profit is good profit , right?).
I have a dumb question though. I'm looking at the BCC page on Bittrex and when I enter the price in the sell section, I entered max units from available BCC and the total comes out to 10% of what I had in Bitcoin. I thought it was 1 to 1... I don't want to make a trade and just give up 90% of a potential profit because of a glitch. Am I missing something?

Hi Luc/ community,
I have a decent grasp on Luc's strategy but I'm doubting myself on bases.
I'm having problems accurately identifying the exact base for my chart.
If I study the history of the chart I believe my bottom alert is the area where the price shot up suddenly, thus creating a solid base.
However, my confusion with it is - more recently there have been smaller but substantial price "shoot ups" , obviously not as big but can they be considered the new base?
Please advice guys :)

Your 2nd and 3rd base are drawn too high. You can try trading off these but it's not certain. Check if the price bounces to smaller bases back in the chart.

Hi Luc I think I messed this trade up. I was a little bit too confident in this trade I guess. Went in with too much size for my taste (25% of portfolio) and now stuck holding.
Can you give me some advice how to first of all prevent this from happening again and what to do next? Appreciate your video's, learning a lot from them!
Alright so I played off the base with the blue arrow. I bought in quite low at the time and set my sell order for the base level (blue arrow line) but it never reached that level. I also missed the bounce and now I'm stuck holding. Do you think it's going to that base in the near future or do I need to suck up my loss and get out on the next bounce? (that seems to be right now)

Im sorry, I wouldnt have considered that blue arrow a base.. you are using a great chart, and the bases are defined by the bounce that happened off them.. so you look back at all those bounces and you will see what should be defined as a base.. your last yellow line was a base, but the other two are questionable.. atleast you wont lose much if you bail on the trade and try again ..

Man I can see it now. That blue arrow base bounce can't be considered an average bounce compared to the other base bounces. So it's not a base, why didn't I see this -_-
I took the L and going to try again. Thanks for your comment!

The base for where you bought seem to be at .0065 and if you based it on that you should have been looking for the bounce back to .0065 and it did. And if you based you purchased on that, you'd be able to get out, not sure I'd make that buy myself though. I would have waited until it dropped below the first based you marked around .0062 but I would also draw that base lower around . 0055 and wait for that to crack
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Thanks for your comment. But the 0.065 looks like such a weak base though. Yes it would've worked but I don't see it as a base. First of all it didn't reach the blue arrow line and therefore I thought we just had to wait for the bounce to the blue arrow line (which never came). Oh and the reason I didn't play off that 0.062 base is because the blue arrow base seemed pretty clear (2x touching for example) and that was the last base so it looked safe...
